Cockapoos, doodles, and other crossbreeds have behavioral problems, too

Popular Science

Trendy designer dogs often have the same issues as pure breeds. The'doodle' industry earns over $1 billion a year. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Designer crossbreed dogs are increasingly popular pets . Much of the rising interest is tied to claims that these mixed pooches possess more desirable aspects than many purebreeds or mutts.

While Christopher Columbus is hailed as the first in 1492, archaeologists uncovered a small terracotta head of a bearded man carved with distinctive European features tucked inside a Mexican tomb. The artifact, known as the Tecaxic-Calixtlahuaca Head, was discovered in 1933 inside a sealed pre-Hispanic burial beneath multiple intact layers, indicating it had not been disturbed after its placement. Experts say its facial features, beard style and craftsmanship bear a striking resemblance to objects from the ancient Mediterranean rather than indigenous Mesoamerican traditions.


How marine mammals stay hydrated in a salty sea

Popular Science

This adorable sea lion has to eat five to eight percent of its body weight every day to stay healthy and hydrated. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Over the long and complicated course of evolutionary history, mammals independently turned towards water to make a home multiple times. While many of the warm-blooded animals that abandoned dry land for a watery habitat no longer exist, we still have plenty of stunning examples: Think dolphins, whales, manatees, porpoises. There's even a whole suborder of carnivores called the pinnipeds, which includes seals, sea lions, and walruses who move between land and water.


Chihuahua, boxer, and 10 other dog breeds at risk of breathing troubles

Popular Science

The new study of almost 900 dogs aims to help owners pinpoint breathing issues. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Despite their popularity, for their seemingly helpless-looking eyes and flat faces, short-skulled (or brachycephalic) dogs like the French bulldog often have serious difficulty breathing. A study published today in the journal found that in 12 breeds, a flat face, collapsing nostrils, and rounded physique puts them at a higher risk for developing common breathing conditions. Pekingese and Japanese chins were noted to be the highest risk.


Return of Unconditional Generation: A Self-supervised Representation Generation Method

Neural Information Processing Systems

Unconditional generation--the problem of modeling data distribution without relying on human-annotated labels--is a long-standing and fundamental challenge in generative models, creating a potential of learning from large-scale unlabeled data. In the literature, the generation quality of an unconditional method has been much worse than that of its conditional counterpart. This gap can be attributed to the lack of semantic information provided by labels. In this work, we show that one can close this gap by generating semantic representations in the representation space produced by a self-supervised encoder. These representations can be used to condition the image generator.

Benchmarking Robustness to Adversarial Image Obfuscations

Neural Information Processing Systems

Advances in in computer vision have lead to classifiers that nearly match human performance in many applications. However, while the human visual system is remarkably versatile in extracting semantic meaning out of even degraded and heavily obfuscated images, today's visual classifiers significantly lag behind in emulating the same robustness, and often yield incorrect outputs in the presence of natural and adversarial degradations.
